The reinstatement of 147 dismissed police officers is underway as negotiations between the police authorities and the Additional IG intensify. The dismissed officers resorted to wandering the streets, urging for their reinstatement after being removed from service due to various charges in Karachi. Despite their initial appeals, the higher-ups didn't accept, leading the dismissed officers to make a second appeal to the Additional IG Karachi. Following this, the Additional IG ordered the reinstatement, prompting a response from the IG Sindh, stating that while he acknowledged the reinstatement, the orders of dismissal would not be revoked. The situation hints at a potential "cold war" within the police ranks. The reinstated officers have appealed to IG Sindh for complete reinstatement, emphasizing the need for employment to support their families. The ongoing conflict also involves issues raised by the Special Branch against several SPs during major meetings, indicating dissatisfaction with the handling of matters by the Karachi Police Chief, despite the situation being previously resolved. The outcome remains uncertain for the 147 police officers awaiting reinstatement and whether they will be subject to the internal power struggles within the police hierarchy.
